Of all the heat people might give Disney for direct to video animated sequels, they don't do well with live-action ones either. This is basically "Angels In The Outfield" with football. Christopher Lloyd is the only actor from the original movie and he's probably the only good thing. I really do miss seeing those other talented actors here, especially Joseph Gordon-Levitt. There's this one annoying guy who's constantly betting on the losing team. Why doesn't he just try the other team?
The actual team is called the Angels and their opponents are called the Devils. How explicit. We don't get any scenes involving the law or anything which really was a big part of the original films (the 1951 version is what I'm also counting). The movie is mostly just boring. There's no team that makes it professionally and thus much less tension. The ending is the exact same too. *1/2
